Blu-ray Review – Natural Selection

"Natural Selection" has all the hallmarks of an average independent
production, with its HD cinematography, mild razzing of religious
conviction, and unshowered performers embodying the middle-class and the
borderline insane. Writer/director Robbie Pickering isn't shy about
following trends, but he's also smart about storytelling, endeavoring to
disrupt the norm with a strange tale of devotion and love buttered on a
road trip saga where things often go horribly wrong for the lead
characters. "Natural Selection" is a comedy, with excitable
personalities and broad confrontations, but Pickering clearly loves
these screwed-up souls, bending the material away from mockery,
gradually revealing his sincerity in a manner that's contagious.
Supported by marvelous performances and a prominent soundtrack, the
feature satisfies and even surprises on occasion, introducing Pickering
as a filmmaker with an interest in emotional content instead of serving
up pedestrian acts of humiliation. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
